    Devon has potential to get back his belt, but I don't see it happening any time soon.
    Hopefully I'm right and his lost to Tim will make him better.

    Contender. He's good, but I've never been particularly impressed with him.

    He's good but he's a child. Timmah's a man!

    He sure didn't. I thought maybe his lost to Kotlenik was a off night and this fight with Devon would motivate him to become great....very wrong. He fights like an amateur, only has one way of fighting and he doesn't have the special sense that champs have to say "**** it" and go in hard.


    I think if he never changes he'll become a gatekeeper for the top fighters at 140. Get pass him you'll get in line to become champ.

    contender. 23 years old and people are talking like he's dead. can never stink out the joint like that again if he ever wants to touch an alphabelt again.

    Former champion and contender. He is there abouts.I don't think he is the next great one after Floyd.

    Needs to gain some balls.
    Need to fight in a war to get some credibility back before he even thinks of fighting for another title
